Don't believe everything you read about the transfer portal! | What rising NIL asks mean for Gonzaga

Locked On Zags - Daily Podcast On Gonzaga Bulldogs Basketball

The transfer portal is college basketball's boogeyman, with many reports indicating 40% of players who enter the portal are still uncommitted - a fact that is incredibly misleading and posted by folks trying to turn fans against player autonomy. Take the Gonzaga Bulldogs for example: 3 players entered the portal and only one of them transferred to a new D1 school: Pavle Stosic, who ended up at Utah State. But Luka Krajnovic returned home to Croatia and Colby Brooks was a walk-on who graduated.

We also discuss the rapidly increasing NIL budgets and asks for players, with a report indicated 77% of polled Power-5 coaches have been asked to pay $1M or more to a player in NIL. When will regulation come to college athletics?

Finally we close the show discussing whether Baylor will truly be Gonzaga's first opponent of the season or if they will add a game on November 4, and why the Zags are playing so many neutral site games this season.
